The chiles in India aren't Cayennes but perhaps related.  In most cases they 
use green chiles for most dahl.  Red dried chiles are used in many other 
dishes.  I particularly love the Kerela food with heat and coconut, and curry 
leaf (murrieya koeniggii) and the lovely fresh pepper corn. Fresh green 
peppercorn is a delight to expierence. with a lovely rich heat!  Or is it the 
backwaters and coconut lagoons that color my palate?

<< I like serranos very much too, but fyi there are no serranos in India, so
in India they use green cayennes for green chile input and red cayennes for
red chile input, and imho this original flavor is the best for Indian food. >>
